Senior Housing Fear in Woodbury – The New York Times Version

Paula Span, who authors the New York Times‘ popular "New Old Age" Blog has a post todayon a vocal sliver of people in Woodbury, Minnesota, opposing senior housing for people with Alzheimer’s in their neighborhood.  Ecumen is a consultant to the project.

What’s interesting is that in this era where another person gets Alzheimer’s every 70 seconds, we still have a number of people who have big time misunderstandings about the disease.  Sadly, if these misunderstandings take further root, they negatively impact the lives of others.  Changing Aging means getting knowledgeable about Alzheimer’s disease and finding a cure to make it go away.
